Abstract
As a department chair, your grant writing responsibilities are a bit different from those of a faculty member. In addition to funding your own disciplinary research, you may want to secure external funds to support departmental initiatives. You also have a responsibility to support the grant writing of junior faculty members. This workshop will focus on three main topics: basic grant writing (for those who have not done a lot, or as a refresher — and this is also information you can use when working with new grant writers), sources of funding for programmatic grants and how to support others’ grant writing efforts.
Keywords
grants, resources, funding, programmatic grants, external funding
